The Dark Side Of Fate

~Leo~

I had been waiting for everyone to leave Amelia and me alone. When they all left, I breathed with relief.

She was in my arms, and I held her tight and kissed her neck. I could not express my emotions until this moment.

Twice she had saved my life and asked for nothing in return. Twice she had risked her life for me.

“Thank you, Moonlight,” I said, and she wrapped her arms around me and sank into my embrace.

“I was afraid, Leo. I was scared,” She confessed, holding me tighter.

I could only imagine what she went through seeing me on the ground, unconscious.

I could only imagine the courage she would have needed to run back to the mansion and get help and her mind’s condition throughout the situation.

I held on to Amelia and thanked the goddess for her.

Finally, fate dealt me a good card. It rectified my hatred for it and rebuilt my trust in it.

She wept in my arms, and I tried to calm her down. She was holding a lot in all through, and I had to commend her for control.

I knew she was brave all through. I was proud of her. She was just as tough as a Luna should be.

“Amelia, it is okay now. We are okay now; Avery and Marcel will be fine,” I said, and she broke the hug. Then looked at me with her moon eyes.

“Let’s go back to the east, Leo. I want to go back,” she said, and I felt it coming.

The accident and attack were going to be traumatic because I suspected nothing like that had ever happened to her directly before.

It was only normal that she would no longer feel safe in the north.

“They cannot prove we are related through the DNA sample. The lab technician got abducted for it. It really doesn’t matter, Leo. You are my family now; that is all that counts. Let us go back to the peace we had in the east. Things were more manageable there, Leo. We just had the small bungalow and pack members to deal with. This is too much for me right now, Leo. I want to go home,” She said, and I touched her cheek gently.

“Calm down, Moonlight. We will go home. Once Avery and Marcel are discharged, we will leave for the east,” I said, wiping away her tears with my thumb, and she nodded with relief.

“What will we tell them is our excuse?” She said worried about hurting their feeling, and I laughed a bit because Amelia was sweet like that.

“I do not live in the north, I only stayed here this long because of you, and since the test has come out inconclusive, there is no point in remaining. They won’t take offence, Amelia. They will understand.” Explained to her, and she relaxed in my arms while we remained cuddled on the couch in the hospital room.

Dr Claudia had told us that they would be awake later in the afternoon and she would discharge them then. I hoped it would be quick because I honestly wanted to return home.
